***The Mii Fighter costume section uses the standard Battlefield remix of Lifelight (otherwise heard at the beginning and end of the section), rather than any of the ''Dragon Quest'' music; it is the only presentation to have no other music in the Mii Fighter costume section, due to there only being ''Dragon Quest''-based Mii costumes included in update 4.0.0. Both of these are likely due to the ''Dragon Quest'' music being owned by the late series composer {{s|wikipedia|Koichi Sugiyama}}, rather than [[Square Enix]]. | ***The Mii Fighter costume section uses the standard Battlefield remix of Lifelight (otherwise heard at the beginning and end of the section), rather than any of the ''Dragon Quest'' music; it is the only presentation to have no other music in the Mii Fighter costume section, due to there only being ''Dragon Quest''-based Mii costumes included in update 4.0.0.

**Though the ''Dragon Quest III'' hero is commonly referred to as "Erdrick", the title they earn at the end of the game, "Arusu" is occasionally used in promotional material for ''Dragon Quest III''. Within ''Ultimate'', "Erdrick" is used for the Mii Swordfighter costume based on the legendary armor that the same character later wears. | **Though the ''Dragon Quest III'' hero is commonly referred to as "Erdrick", the title they earn at the end of the game, "Arusu" is occasionally used in promotional material for ''Dragon Quest III''.

*When mentioning the voice actor for Erdrick, he jokes that the King of Braves is voicing the Hero, referencing Guy Shishioh from ''The King of Braves GaoGaiGar'', whom Hiyama has also voiced.

*At the beginning of the presentation, Sakurai jokes that a "voice from the heavens" told him to put a ''Tekken'' character in ''Smash''. In Japanese, this is a pun on how the name [[Nintendo]] features the kanji 天 (''ten''), which means "heaven", and is a reference to how Nintendo decides all of the DLC fighters for the game before Sakurai approves them. | *At the beginning of the presentation, Sakurai jokes that a "voice from the heavens" told him to put a ''Tekken'' character in ''Smash''.

*Much like Pyra and Mythra's presentation, the thumbnail for the North American presentation simply says, "Kazuya Joins the Battle!" rather than his trailer tagline ("Kazuya GETS READY FOR THE NEXT BATTLE!"), though this may be due to it being too long to put the entire caption on screen. | *Much like Pyra and Mythra's presentation, the thumbnail for the North American presentation simply says, "Kazuya Joins the Battle!" rather than his trailer tagline ("Kazuya GETS READY FOR THE NEXT BATTLE!"), though this may be due to it being too long to put the entire caption on screen. | ||
